Bottle Refusal

Many breastfed babies develop a strong preference for breastfeeding and may refuse to take a bottle, which can be frustrating for nursing mothers. This can leave the mother solely responsible for feeding the baby until weaning (typically after 12 months).

If you’re struggling with introducing a bottle or transitioning away from breastfeeding, we are here to help. With our proven methods, we offer a 100% success rate in helping babies make the transition smoothly.

Having a Baby?

At The Happy Baby Company, our motto when it comes to preparing to welcome a baby is “Start Strong”.

Booked during pregnancy, or within the first 7-10 days post birth, this package offers you a completely bespoke service whereby one of our consultants will visit your family at home, and over the course of a day, teach you everything you need to know about caring for your newborn within the first 3 months.

Maternity Nursing

The role of a Maternity Nurse is to offer guidance and support to parents, and care for the newborn (up to 4 months).

Working with one of our qualified maternity nurses following the birth of your baby (for a few nights, several weeks, or even months), allows for the opportunity to not only physically recover from your birth and get some extra sleep, but to also be supported by an experienced feeding specialist, and sleep expert, who can offer professional, caring and practical guidance in establishing excellent feeding and sleep practices from the very beginning.

About Sarah

Qualified and Experienced Maternity Nurse  

Paediatric Sleep Consultant

Expert in Newborn Care, Maternity Support, and Parenting Guidance.

I began my career training as a Paediatric Nurse at the Royal Hospital for Sick Children in Edinburgh from 2002 to 2005, gaining extensive experience across clinical areas such as A&E, medical paediatrics, specialty surgery, neurology, burns, and neonatal care. This foundation equipped me with invaluable knowledge in the healthcare and wellbeing of infants and children.

After graduating, I pursued further training and became a qualified maternity nurse, specializing in newborn care. My career has taken me around the world, providing maternity nurse services in London, Paris, New York, Dubai, and Qatar. Throughout my journey, I expanded my expertise by working closely with speech and language therapists, specialist feeding therapists, and physical therapists. I also trained as a Birth Doula at the renowned Mount Sinai Beth Israel Hospital in New York City.

In 2013, I returned to Edinburgh and became the Director of a highly successful maternity nurse agency. Over the years, I have had the privilege of helping hundreds of families through maternity consultancy, newborn care, and tailored support. My agency’s core philosophy revolves around personalised, bespoke support for each family. We believe every baby, every child, and every family is unique and deserves individualised care to thrive.

I am also a proud mother of two energetic little boys who keep me constantly learning and evolving. My passion lies in empowering parents to make informed decisions, guiding them to enjoy their parenting experience with confidence and joy.

With over 20 years of experience in newborn care, maternity nursing, sleep consultancy, and parenting support, I’m dedicated to supporting families throughout every stage of their parenting journey.
